Happy Friday!

I did some coloring yesterday and was so excited to get a card made. I found the digi freebie on OWH's Stars and Stamps blog. I stayed up late to post it to my blog, but it just was not happening. So now while streaming 92.5 Kiss FM to hear the Crystal Bowersox (American Idol) interview I thought I'd try again. The digi image is from Wink Wink Ink. Isn't this just an adorable image! What a perfect image for a kid's card for our Heroes to send home to their children, nephews and nieces. I lucked out and had the perfect sentiment from Unity Stamps. I'm not sure why the yellow shows up peach.

Right now I am streaming KissFM 92.5 so I can hear American Idol Crystal Bowersox also known as Mama Sox. She really has an awesome voice and I think she will make it to number 1! Here is a photo of her, I decided to pick a different one. Her voice gives me chills. There is a whole day planned here for her, local radio show interviews, a parade or two, Bowerstock at Ottawa County fairgrounds, she's going to sing at the Mudhen's game and I'm sure there will lots of other appearances.

Thanks for stopping by! Vote for Crystal! :D

We Interrupt this station...err homework

to do some creating! Woohoo I finally created a couple of note cards. I found this wonderful freebie digi image from Fred, She Said on the OWH Stars and Stamps blog or was it Sandy Allnock's blog? Anyhoo, Saturday a couple of friends and I went to Archiver's in Novi, MI. I haven't been to an Archiver's in about 4 yrs. There wasn't one in Milwaukee the closest one I knew of was in Gurnee, IL. So when Tim came to help me move we stopped in the Gurnee Archivers to browse. My friends & I went this weekend because they were demonstrating the various die cutting machines. Unfortunately, they didn't demo the Wishblade, which is the machine I just bought about a month ago, since I was able to get it at a great price. We also shopped at a HUGE JoAnn's, I thought the ones in Milwaukee, WI and Taylor, MI were big, this one was 2 floors! Then we stopped at Michael's too! I got something at each place, so lucky to have friends who share their coupons! So I just had to create something.
I love Hero Arts stamps and found the cling dots background stamp. I've seen some cute cards made with this wonderful stamp, so into my my basket it went. I found some pretty papers and a little bling too. If I didn't have to watch my pennies I sure would have loaded my basket. So here are a couple of the note cards. I colored up the digi stamp image in red, pink, lavender and yellow with my prismacolor pencils. I used the HA Cling Dots backgrounder with white embossing powder on kraft paper. Yes, I love kraft paper!
Well back to regular programming...a rough draft of a paper is due by class tonight, a new speech by Thursday and an Algebra test on Friday. Hopefully during a break I can stop by and see your wonderful creations. Thanks for stopping by oh and please comment on my blog candy for a chance to win some goodies!
